SVG doesn't change the way positioned text does.
- wongarsu 3y agoIt doesn't have the same weight or even shape as the old one, so I'm honestly not sure this was a priority. But in principle you are right, SVG is the correct choice.

The vertex is lower. But those old voting arrows look terrible now.
